Now THAT I can agree with unambiguously. Especially when we're looking at the patriarchy through crosshairs and see other women.

As Canadian as possible, under the circumstances. :)

In my general experience with psychopaths, if you worry at all that you're a good person, you probably are a good person.

I'm sure Loaves And Fishes would sell the synthetic meat that tastes like despair, though.

Oh my god, thank you, I am SUCH an idiot. And that could have taken two seconds to Google.

As impressively manipulative as Serena's hostage dilemma tactic is, I'd be really surprised if she'd actually be able to follow through on hurting/killing a child.

Word. This is not a situation for moral relativism.

Grumbling because I feel like this appearance was to remind us of Luke and suggest he will have a larger role next season, because I find him to be kind of a douche and am kind of disinterested in spotlight time for him.

Rather than put a strain on Canada's hospitality, I'd ask for a spare battle rifle and a few magazines, a box of birth control, an audiobook master of "Our Bodies, Our Selves" and directions to the nearest resistance camp. Maybe some poutine for the road.

A lot of people forget her role in the also unfortunately forgotten "Ted" as the hilariously evil corporate executive. Same exact hairstyle, too.

Good reference to On The Beach, the bleakest apocalypse novel ever.

That was my take on it too, just because I think we'll be told pretty head-on when we should stop assuming that to be the state of affairs.

Well, if we're going to subject our psyches to another season of this, I'm hoping they'll do some world building and try to generate more internal consistency with greater detail, and maybe even give us some catharsis and show the revolution/Mayday.

To me this was addressed in the flashbacks: there's an army of male underlings of her husband that followed all her verbal commands, both during the transition and in the present. They highlighted this when she walks up to the door of the ballroom and rather than make a move to open the door, holds her hands up in…

Unbabies were addressed in the episode where Janine gave birth, which is probably why she specifically commented on "a GOOD baby," and why (I believe) we had the long pregnant (pun intended) silence when everyone just stared at the newborn for a moment before the Aunt giving her benediction that it wasn't going into…
